Over the weekend, I was doing a pre-interview chat with comedian Rose Callaghan — more on her in the Content Corner section below — when she mentioned something that grabbed my attention. The internet, she said, seems a lot less fun than before the pandemic.

This instantly felt true. The COVID-19 pandemic has not been a good time for reasons that I doubt I have to go into (I’m not expecting much pushback on this). Three years later, most people have returned to their pre-pandemic behaviours, for better or worse.
